    3. There are no Winslow, Oneco, or Orangeville papers in microfilm at the state lib., but there are Lena papers on microfilm. They are as follows--Northwestern Illinois Farmer: Star(weekly)[*Ja 4, 1867-O29,1908X]; (semi-weekly) [*N 3, 1908-My 7, 1909X]; (weekly0 [My 13, 1910-S 26, 1957X];Stephenson Farmer *O3-D 26, 1957, Jl 1961-D 31, 1964; Ja 7, 1965; Northwestern Illinois Farmer, [Ap 27, 1967+] The * means the 1st issue of the series, the X means the last issue of the series. The + means that the file is continuing to date, and new issues are being received regularly. Apparently this was one newspaper, just changing names and publishers over the years. I'm sure those other towns had newspapers-- they just didn't get on microfilm. Mary Vivian
